A friend in need.

Companion–a new horror-s/f feature that’s being kept cloaked in secrecy so far–this week landed its lead actor, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Jack Quaid (The Boys, the 2002 Scream reboot) will head the cast of the thriller that’s being produced by Zach Cregger (Barbarian), Raphael Margules and J.D. Lifshitz of BoulderLight Pictures. Tracy Rosenblum and Andrew Childs will serve as executive producers.

Plot details, production schedules and a release window for Companion–written and directed by Drew Hancock (in his feature directorial debut)–have not yet been revealed.

With so many question marks surrounding this film, keep reading Horror News Network for more on Companion.
